I recently completed the Professional Certificate in SQL Programming (Advanced) course at Stanmore School of Business, and I'm generally satisfied with the experience. As a data scientist in São Paulo, I needed to improve my SQL skills to work with large datasets and complex databases. The course provided a good overview of advanced SQL concepts, including data warehousing, ETL, and data governance. I appreciated the focus on practical skills, with many examples and case studies that demonstrated how to apply the concepts to real-world scenarios. The course materials were well-organized, and the instructor support was good, although I would have liked more feedback on my assignments. One area for improvement is the lack of advanced topics, such as machine learning and data science applications, which would have been interesting to explore. Overall, I would recommend this course to anyone looking to improve their SQL skills, but I would suggest that they also explore additional resources to supplement their learning.
